Anybody know what Flaminpyro did to get banned? Poor guy. :cryyy:

Just finished my first 1.2A build sunday night. After reading about the heft of the 445 diodes, I decided I wanted to crank it up, but I ran into some problems getting > 1.2A out of a single flexdrive: http://laserpointerforums.com/f67/micro-flexdrive-jumpers-64734.html Long story short, wired...

Hi Guys. I broke the pot on a micro flexdrive today. I didn't realize it was a single-turn, and I over-rotated because I didn't feel any resistance. The top piece came off. Crap. Any suggestions about how I could salvage it? If I put pressure to hold it down, it can still be turned to make...
